Oh, I’m so lonely.
Will you keep me company, Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough The Cone?
You will?
Oh thank you, my dear and delicious friend! You’re a wonderful comfort food.
Mmm, your waffle cone filled with vanilla ice cream, cookie dough swirls, and fudge chips not only fills the void in my soul with friendship, kindness, and sunshine, like my Care Bears would, but also fills it with 12 grams of saturated fat.
My heart may not like your extremely high amounts of saturated fat, but I adore you for it. That’s what’s great about our relationship, it’s unconditional.
I maybe homely, clumsy, dorky, geeky, and suck my thumb when I sleep, and you maybe smaller than a Drumstick, but it doesn’t matter. We like each other for who and what we are.
Without you, Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough The Cone, I would probably sit on the couch, eat a can of Pringles, watch Nickelodeon or Home and Garden Television, let my beard grow out, scratch myself, accumulate stray cats, and form a body mold on my couch.
But you can make a hot summer day feel cooler and despite you being filled with cold vanilla ice cream, you can warm my heart.
Although, that could also be the saturated fat.
If only I could live in the freezer with you and we can spend our time throwing frozen broccoli at each other or making ice cream castles with the half gallon of vanilla ice cream I used to eat as comfort food.
Unfortunately, due to size constraints, the limited amount of oxygen in the freezer, and my lack of warm clothing because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, I can’t.
Instead, to remind myself of our friendship, I keep your box outside with me because the picture on the box looks almost exactly like you do in real life, which is a rare thing with food products.
Do you know what the best part about you is?
Your waffle cone is surprisingly really crunchy and tasty, unlike other frozen cone treats I’ve had. Despite the harsh conditions and moisture your waffle cone has had to face, it stays strong, much like our friendship. Also, you don’t drip all over me like some of the other coned ice cream treats that I’ve been burned by, thanks to the chocolate coating inside of your waffle cone.
Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough The Cone, you’re so delicious that you’re like heaven in a cone and I think I would do something crazy without you, like read Dianetics or watch Larry the Cable Guy.
W-w-wait. W-w-where did you go, Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough The Cone?
I ATE HIM!!! NOOOO!!!
Man, he was good. Git-R-Done.
NOOOO!!!
Oh, I’m so lonely.
Oh wait, there’s two more in the box.
Oh, there you are, my dear and delicious friend!

Price: $4.99
Purchased at: Safeway
Rating: 5 out of 5
Pros: Damn good. It looks almost exactly like it does on the box. Awesome comfort food. Surprisingly really crunchy waffle cone. No cone dripping. Three cones per box. A dear friend. Care Bears filling my soul with friendship, kindness, and sunshine.
Cons: A little expensive, but what do you expect, it’s Ben & Jerry’s. Smaller than a Drumstick. One cone has 12g of saturated fat. Being lonely.
Wow…5 out of 5!! Musta really warmed your heart on a lonely night. They look really yummy.
I bet Drumsticks had a crunchy cone too when they were a new product..will have to keep up on B&J’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough The Cone to see how it holds up in the freezer.
Meh, at least there wasnt an unfunny sex joke…
Hmmm…a rare “Marvo Maximus” rating. I’ll have to give these a try sometime. Although I really don’t need more saturated fat in my diet. But they do look tasty.
I will keep you from being lonely, Marvo, if you will share your Ben & Jerry’s with me! 😉
I always rather liked the soft texture of drumsticks. But I’m afraid when it comes to novelty snacks, sandwiches do it for me more than cones.
Too deadly, but so beautiful. I wanna play broccoli catch, I doubt I could convince the wife to spend an afternoon in a freezer though. Don’t listen to Rylan, your sex jokes are always funny.
smaller than a drumstick?? don’t you know that size really does matter?
Next they/ll be making Ice Cream Cookie Dough pacifiers for babies. Why not start them young. Get them addicted to the sugary goodness early.
Ice Cream is like crack for fat people. Not that I would enjoy it, but 12 grams. Man, I hope they are contributing to the American Heart Association. I hope god rips Ben & Jerry souls out of there bodies and stuffs them into large depressed cows waiting to be milked.
Nothing says true love better than 12 sweet, sweet grams of fat.
Oh man, I’ve been eyeing that box in the freezer case ever since I saw it a few weeks ago. mmm. Must… get…the… cone…
I’m loney too. wanna be my special friend marvo?
5 out of 5 made me sit up and take notice… but only 3 in a box? I actually just bought a few pints of ben and jerry’s the other day. I forgot how good it was. But now my wallet is empty.
p.s. if you want any care bears, just let me know and I’ll send them to you in the mail.
How is it that you have these in Hawaii and I haven’t seen these in the Greater New York City/Tri-State area yet? I must be shopping at the wrong stores.
Looks delish!
How many of those grams are trans fats? Can’t find that info anywhere.
Good to know you have stamina to make it through a second cone.
omg, that does look heavenly. I have some Drumsticks in the freezer, but I know they just aren’t going to compare to the deliciousness you’ve just experienced, I’m sure.
Ah yes the awesome power of ice cream chocolate and waffle cones. It cannot be denied.
Good one… here’s irony: Started reading this (read: drooling) just as i fi finished my second bowl of Soy Delicious chocolate ice cream with fake Cool Whip. It was fun reading this yummy review. Broccoli fights in he freezer, love that !!! Timing…
Don’t feel too bad Mandy, I haven’t seen them anywhere in St. Louis either. Can’t wait til I do, however….
skibs – I ate all three and I totally miss them. Why did I have to be hungry? Why?
Rylan – Hey, don’t encourage me! I could easily write something like flicking the tip of the cone with my tongue or something like that.
Chuck – Eat them when you’re lonely, eat them after a bad day, or eat them after the Matt Lauer/Britney Spears interview.
Mir – NO! They’re mine. ALL MINE!!! Man, I sound like a 10-year-old.
HeartofGlass – I like ice cream sandwiches too. I like how the chocolate part sticks to my fingers.
L’il E – You know what’s more fun than broccoli catch? Broccoli badminton.
jenn – I’m going to tell you right now that size does matter. When you’re given Magnum condoms and you can’t fit in them, that’s when size really does matter.
Gman – Hey man, I can quit whenever I want! I have control over it. Ice cream doesn’t control me…Hey man, can I borrow $4.99 for some ice cream.
Wednesday – Um, I think buying tampons for a woman says true love better than 12 grams of fat. That’s just my opinion.
renee – Please when you pick it up, and condensation forms on the freezer case door, don’t forget to make a smiley face in the condensation.
DaDead – Um, when you grow breasts, let me know. 😉
Bryan – I guess Ben & Jerry’s isn’t cheap eats. As for the Care Bears, I don’t want to ask why you have some…But do you have Tenderheart Bear?
Mandy – I believe the hotter the temperature is, the more stock of The Cone a state has. I’m probably wrong about that though.
Peachy – On the box it says zero trans fat. Yay! Remember boys and girls, say no to trans fats.
klew – Although, I don’t think I have the stamina to make it up a second flight of stairs.
Webmiztris – If you like nuts, Drumsticks are probably the way to go. But I would not trade your Drumsticks for one of these.
Melis – Oh, it can be denied, if I lacked the senses of taste, smell, and sight.
Karen – Have you ever had Tofutti? I used to eat soft serve Tofutti when I was growing up. It was my parents attempt to get me out of my husky phase. Actually, running track got me out of my husky phase.
Jess – You should tell Ben & Jerry to get off of their asses and bring some of these to St. Louis. While you’re at it, tell them they should name a flavor after you, because you had to wait so frickin’ long for these.
“If only I could live in the freezer with you and we can spend our time throwing frozen broccoli at each other “…..
Haha! You crack me up Marvo!
I’m on the way to the store right after I clean out my freezer of anything that resembles healthy.
Ultimate Best Vamp Ever – Just to let you know, frozen broccoli is much safer than frozen chicken.
Chana – Hey, gotta keep the healthy stuff to balance everything. Keep the frozen broccoli, because they are healthy and fun to throw at people.
I’m sure if I was willing to make the half hour drive to the Loop, I could find them. We have a Ben & Jerry’s store down there, but — Hey! I’m off today! And I just got paid. Field trip to B&J!!
I just might have to take a little field trip to Ben & Jerry’s the store.
I can only think of one gocery that carries Ben & Jerry’s ice creams. I never really got into them though. I don’t even like the mix ins at Cold Stone Creamery…I guess I’m a purist. Actually I’m more of a sorbet person…Cold Stone’s watermelon sorbet is the bomb diggity.
I was at WalMart last night, and a box of these is $2.49 here. I tried to talk my husband into buying it, but somehow, he wasn’t swayed by my second-hand relay of the Marvo review. What’s the matter with him? He also rolled his eyes when I ordered an Asian Chicken Salad today at McD’s, which I have fallen in love with, and only tried because of the strength of the Marvo review.
Jess – You have a Ben & Jerry’s store? All we have is frickin’ Haagen Daaz and Stone Cold Creamery.
Gia on Guam – Mmm…Lychee sorbet.
AmberLB – You know, I hear Kevin Federline’s album is EXCELLENT. You should totally buy it. 😉
